Physical-Cyber Distance

The MIT Media Lab unveiled the inFORM in December 2013, which is an interface of tomorrow. Almost like a table of living clay, the inFORM can change shape and colour three-dimensionally, allowing 'physical' contact between people who are miles apart.

This is only the beginning, if the inFORM can be programmed and refined in such a way, the opportunity for physical-cyber distance can be vastly impacted!

Watch the video below for a taste of tomorrow:
